Abbot brought two chairs and brought Roy a cup of tea and two pieces of breadfruit.
When Roy took the breadfruit, he realized that he was already hungry. He drank a cup of tea with honey and lemon juice in one gulp, and then ate a piece of breadfruit, which made his stomach feel much better.
Roy then began to describe the encounter between the two on the Sea Wolf.
From the moment we boarded the Sea Wolf, until the elven army stormed the port dock, and finally the Sea Wolf was completely sunk.
At this time, Jasper knew that the 17th Legion stationed in the north of Walnut Grove could arrive at the dock in time. It was not that there was a mixed elf imprisoned on the ship, or that there was a whole ship of Naga mermaid slaves, but Aoife.
Princess Leia and the elven nobles participated in this matter.
They will not let this group of young elf nobles encounter any danger. After all, if the Seventeenth Legion wants to be comfortably stationed in Walnut Grove, it must obtain the support of the elf nobles of Castleton City.
"Roy, you are so brave, you actually went to the seaside manor for help. Aren't you afraid of being thrown out?"
After listening to Roy's story, Abbot covered his face with his hands and said loudly.
"If you are thrown out by them, the most you will do is fall again, so what does it matter?" Roy spread his hands and said.
"Besides, those elf guards saw that I was already in such a miserable state, so even if they were out of sympathy, they wouldn't make things too difficult for me. If I go to the manor for help, there are only two results, success or failure! But if you don't try, how can you do it?
The final answer?”
After Roy finished speaking, a faint smile appeared on his face.
"Fortunately, I met the classmates and teachers I just met at the Elf Academy in the manor. They all gave me the best possible help."
"Roy, you should have someone send us a message. There are also many believers of the Statue of Liberty at Castletown Port, and many of them know me."
High Priest Reed said to Roy.
The words of High Priest Reed reminded everyone of the current embarrassing situation of the Temple of Liberty.
Due to the inability to get a response from the goddess for several months, not only the priests in the temple were in an awkward situation, but also a large group of believers of the Statue of Liberty gradually began to become alienated from the temple.
Pond, it is estimated that all the believers may be gone in the end.
If the sacred light of the Statue of Liberty really can no longer shine on the Eastern Continent, then where should these priests in the elven world go?
The atmosphere in the room suddenly became dull, and High Priest Reed said to Jasper:
"The latter part of Roy's experience is not your experience. Jasper, how did you escape from the Sea Wolf?"
Jasper sat on the bedside, High Priest Reed's Holy Light spell making him energetic.
Then Jasper told everyone about the experience after Roy left.
…
Hugh returned to the hold along the secret passage and brought back a sharp ax and chisel.
When he pushed open the hatch and swam into the hold, he discovered that the elf was resting against the wet wall on one side of the hold, looking listless.
When the Naga mermaids in the bottom cabin saw Xio returning to the bottom cabin, they immediately looked towards him excitedly.
The collars and chains on the necks of the Naga mermaids can only allow them to swim within one meter of their original location. They will neither die from lack of water nor move freely.
In the bottom cabin, there were three sick naga mermaids. After receiving treatment from Jasper, their conditions have improved significantly.
Unfortunately, the holy light in Jasper's body has been exhausted, and he cannot treat more naga mermaids.
"Hugh, did you send that elf out?"
Tiffany exposed her upper body from the water at the bottom of the boat and asked Xio.
Xio raised the ax and chisel in his hand, stared at the dark collars around their necks, and said with red eyes:
"Sent it away. He gave me this before he left."
Jasper leaned against the wet wall and opened his eyes. Although he couldn't understand what the two Nagas were talking about, he saw the ax and chisel in the hands of the Naga killer and guessed that Roy must have gone out safely.
Already.
'Roy will definitely go to the guards of the Guard for help, but those elf guards can't even find the Holy Grail. I really hope that he can return to the temple as soon as possible. Probably only Teacher Theodore can save me!'
Jasper thought silently in his heart.
"I know what he means. He wants me to cut open the bottom of the ship. I guess the elf warriors outside may not be able to get here in time."
Hugh said to Tiffany.
Tiffany is the daughter of the leader of their tribe and the recognized leader of this group of captured Naga mermaids.
She thought for a while and agreed to Xio's proposal.
The wood used for the side panels of the Seawolf's hull is very hard hard fir.
In addition to the keel, there are three layers of side panels inside and outside, and the surface is also brushed with tung oil, and there are almost no seams.
Xio chose to dig a hole on the back side of the bottom of the boat. The chisel in his hand drove down half a foot. After he reluctantly pulled it out, a wave of sea water finally came in from the outside.
In order to avoid being discovered by the crew on the ship, Xio did not dare to move too much at first.
But soon, the hole opened expanded to the size of a fist, and the sea water outside poured in like a fountain.
Water began to enter the bottom cabin, and the water that poured in was clear and clean. The Naga mermaids on the side couldn't help but stretched their heads over and let the clear water wash into their faces.
Hugh continued to expand the hole, but water kept pouring in from the outside, making the hole expansion project very difficult.
By the time he enlarged the hole in the bottom of the boat to the size of a copper basin, the water rushing into the bottom tank had become extremely fast.
He was very worried that changes in water levels would be discovered by sailors outside.
But then he heard footsteps coming from the port pier, followed by the sound of chains sliding as the ship weighed anchor...
He guessed that there must be a new situation outside, and it was very likely that the elves from Castletown had arrived.
At this time, Xio began to work harder with the chisel to widen the hole. He had to dig the hole enough for the Nagas to pass through easily.
The Sea Wolf was still sinking slowly unknowingly, and at this time there was another banging sound outside, like the sound of a harpoon being shot into the hull...
With the influx of large amounts of seawater, the water level in the bottom tank continued to rise.
Jasper, who was originally resting next to the cabin, began to feel uneasy at this moment. It was not that he didn't know how to swim, he was just trapped in the bottom cabin. He didn't think he could swim out of the hole.
If not, he might suffocate to death in the bottom cabin...
As the water level reached his chest, he had to lean against the wooden wall and stand as straight as possible.
"Don't worry, your friend has fulfilled his promise. Once the bottom of the boat is dug, I will have someone take you outside first..."
Tiffany, the naga mermaid, approached Jasper and spoke to him in awkward Elvish.
Xio nodded a little uneasily. The Naga Mermaid still had a chain around her neck, so she reminded her:
"I'm afraid a battle has broken out outside now, and those sailors may be coming in soon. You'd better open the chains as soon as possible, and don't worry about whether they will be discovered!"
Tiffany nodded, looked at the chain extending from the keel, and decisively picked up the ax that Xiu had brought back. Her body stuck out of the sea, with her head almost touching the roof of the shed, facing the lock at the keel.
The ring was chopped down hard.
There was a crisp sound of 'click', and a huge gap was opened in the chain.
He swung the ax again and struck down, and the chain broke immediately.
The short chain on the other side of the keel beam seemed to be under tension and retracted instantly.
Tiffany swung her three-colored fish tail, swam to the other Naga mermaids, and began to cut off the chains that locked them one by one.
Many mermaids with chains around their necks immersed their whole bodies in the sea water. Everyone gathered at the entrance of the cave and breathed in the fresh sea water.
The physical condition of this group of Naga mermaids is already very poor. After being kept in this polluted environment for a long time, many Naga mermaid girls have become ill.
Now that new seawater is being injected into the bottom tank, the Naga mermaids can't help but get closer and let the clean seawater wash their bodies...
The seawater quickly reached Jasper's shoulders, and he could only stand up as straight as possible and breathe the remaining air in the bottom cabin.
At this time, the sound of paddling came from outside the bottom cabin, and the sailors shouted loudly:
"Oops, there's water in the bottom cabin, please come and help..."
Jasper endured the pain in his body and swam with all his strength towards the door of the bottom cabin.
Finally, before the sailors rushed in, he closed the wooden door of the bottom cabin with force.
He found a door bolt as thick as an arm in one corner of the wall, which was placed across the wooden door and completely blocked the bottom cabin.
The water came up and covered Jasper's nose.
He had to let his body float, then raise his head so that his nose was close to the top of the ceiling of the bilge, so that he could breathe the last bit of turbid air in the bilge.
I believe that the two crew members in the corridor outside the bottom cabin will not be too happy either.
At this time, the sound of "bang bang bang" hitting the cabin door could still be heard in the outer corridor.
Jasper was worried that the crew would rush in...
Since they are the crew of the Sea Wolf, it can be imagined that their water skills are quite good. If they enter the bottom cabin with fishing nets and harpoons, they will inevitably kill the Naga mermaids who have no resistance.
I saw that the bolt of the cabin door was gradually deformed under the impact of the sailors outside, and it was possible that it would come out of the slot at any time.
Without thinking, Jasper dove into the water and held the door bolt firmly with both hands.
Probably because he noticed it, the hatch that was already shaky suddenly became solid again.
The sailors probably guessed that someone was blocking the hatch.
Jasper held his breath and blocked the door.
Suddenly, a spear penetrated the thick wooden board of the hatch, pierced in from the outside, and passed directly through Jasper's armpit.
He was so frightened that he opened his mouth and took a deep gulp of sea water.
Jasper was already exhausted, the power of the Holy Light was exhausted, and there were several wounds all over his body.
Taking such a big gulp of sea water, his mind went blank and he immediately lost consciousness in the sea water. His body was soaked in sea water and floated into the bottom cabin, with bubbles constantly coming out of his mouth and nose.
